In this three-part series, Dr. Brett Salkeld and Dr. John Jalsevac, headmaster of Our Lady of the Wayside Catholic School in Peterborough, Ontario, discuss the growing popularity of Classical education and its distinct approach to student formation and education.
Show Snippet: "One of the characteristics that unites many classical schools is a focus on wonder in the face of all forms of knowledge. And so we need to be feeding that thirst in our schools...they're going to get the full run that you would get in a normal school on the maths and sciences. They're going to get their algebra and their calculus and their physics and their chemistry...And then the classical approach is that we're going to see that there's actually a harmony between what we're studying in philosophy and theology or literature and what we're studying in chemistry and physics."
